While you guys may enjoy the hunt, I simply like the taste of snipe. We have a local bar who does a Friday night snipe fry in beer batter. Talk about heaven!! I believe he gets his stock from a snipe farm where they feed them sorghum. Nothing better than a mess of fresh filet-o-snipe.
I was fortunate to become friendly with the owner and he saves the snipe skin for me. I have it tanned and we have several pieces of furniture covered in snipe. I prefer naugahyde, but it is difficult to find since the nauga has become extinct.
